Unique Tea Room Gardens in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Lovely decor and atmosphere as is expected for castle rising area, had a lovely cuppa and why the brownie wasn't anything good or something I recommend (in this case thr toffee crispy brownie), the aforementioned atmosphere makes up for this . Prices are reasonable.

Came here for a roast dinner after so many recommendations from friends and family and it really was one of the best! Delicious, the meat (Lamb) was cooked to perfection and the variety of vegetables were just right. Gravy was so flavoursome. We’ve been here for breakfast recently which is also very good but the roast really was even nicer! Will definitely be visiting again soon. All the staff are very friendly especially Charlotte who is very welcoming and bubbly.

First time visiting Castle Rising Tea Rooms and just popped in for a coffee and tea cake. We were made to feel very welcome and were introduced to the staff. Lovely atmosphere, great cup of coffee, we will be back soon to sample the breakfast.

To be honest; it was an overall terrible experience. Not what I would have expected from the previous reviews and genuine expectation within a lovely area of West Norfolk. Went for a lunch with family for a birthday celebration and it was a disaster from start to finish. There was nowhere to park clearly and the signs did not make sense at all. There was nowhere for us to wait and order properly and we were always in the way of other diners and also staff. The staff were not helpful at all and we were placed in a very squashed corner of the room where there was 4 of us wanting lunch. When we were moved they moved us into a place where it was awkward to move in and out and also the table was wonky and the chairs were on their last legs. In regards to the food itself; honestly it was by far the worst meals we have had in a long time; 2 of us ordered the Sunday roast (pork) and 2 of us ordered Lasagna from the special board-which should have come with garlic bread but did not and they were substituted with chips; which was not a huge deal but communication of this change would have been appreciated. Alongside this; once we had ordered; we had the 2 specials come out within 10 minutes but then the roast dinners took a hour to come out! When we did get them the lasagna was not even a lasagna; rather a pasta bake; and the roast dinners had been overcooked, burnt and was not at all warm. The service in itself was extremely slow and we were only offered a free dessert for the hour wait which was unacceptable in my eyes. I really hate hating on local restaurants and cafes but I am beyond disappointed with this place; considering the amount of previous positive reviews and recommendations offered. Will not be coming back unless there is a serious over all of the entire cafe and food.

Very disappointed with jacket potato today ordered a plain one that was to be served with salad. With a coffee it was £11.90. The potato was microwaved up from pre cooked and tasted accordingly. The salad was just a garnish and no dressing was offered until requested. I can see very mixed reviews and think I agree that there’s room for improvement

6 of us had afternoon tea today. Lovely staff, very efficient and friendly. Great food, great sarnies, huge selection of small cakes and 6 scones, jam and cream, glass of fizz and lovely tea/coffee. All served in a pretty garden. It was a good end to our weekend in Norfolk.

Disgusting! Five of us arrived (including two hungry little girls aged eight and five) and we ordered food – nothing fancy, just sandwiches, chips, a salad and a jacket potato. We were told it would be 20 minutes, which was fine. Three-quarters of an hour later, with no sign of anything on the horizon, the lady who ordered went inside to be told our order had been (and I quote) ‘forgotten’. She was offered either a refund on the food (which was impractical, since the little girls were by now extremely hungry) or a promise of the food in ‘five minutes’ and complimentary drinks. We were forced to take the latter option, although it doesn’t take a genius to work out that the management would still profit from this arrangement, given that the drinks consisted of a can of John Smiths and two cans of pop, no doubt bought cheaply from a wholesaler. Ten minutes later, the food arrived. The chips were hard in the middle, and the salad (which cost over £14) consisted mainly of lettuce, with a few desultory prawns thrown in and bread, instead of the expected chips. The baked potato appeared to have been prepared in a crematorium. All in all, a classic example of a prime spot catering establishment taking advantage of a guaranteed clientele to rip people off and offer awful service. I’d add that most of our party were from New Zealand. What a wonderful impression of British hospitality – NOT!

Tried to book a table over the phone!! Absolutely rude staff who acted like it was a total inconvenience so I didn’t bother

We popped into the area rooms for a small lunch. The setting is beautiful and we sat in the garden that has a number of picnic tables and umbrellas, we had a dog which was warmly welcomed. We ordered a Brie and bacon sandwich which we hadn’t had before and it was absolutely lovely, it came with a side salad and crisps. We also had some cake which I believe is made on site, again it was lovely. I must say I’ve never been one for “Tea Rooms” but I would definitely return here. Food, staff, setting, welcome were all brilliant. Well done ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Humpand2 (55 reviews) Norwich, United Kingdom Very greasy breakfast. The plate was swimming in grease, the hash browns were not drained before serving, the eggs were overdone and hidden under a mass of baked beans, the sausages were deep fried. I had to pat my bacon on napkins to drain the grease off before I could eat it. A very expensive breakfast ( to eat 1 slice of bacon and a piece of toast ). I would not recommend!!

Absolutely beautiful food, breakfast was fabulous & also fantastic choice of homemade cakes, the staff are great at making you feel at home, so friendly & so attentive, The whole setting is relaxing ,quaint & very pretty , eating areas inside & out beautiful garden area which is dog friendly & if you haven't been you need to pay this 5* place with 5* staff a visit!

This tearoom is located in a beautiful Old house, with multiple rooms to sit in. The team here do a great job in navigating the layout of the building to provide the best experience that they can. We were here for breakfast and it certainly kept us going all day. Will certainly return

I took my grand daughter here, we both had a cooked breakfast, which was very nice, reasonable price,it was very quiet, staff standing around talking, Had to ask to be served.

Got there, around 5 pm. Asked for directions prior but could hear a girl in the background asking what the **** was that about. Offered the full menu but at 10 minutes in the same girl appeared told me they were shut and tried to get me to box all of my meal up and drink my tea fast. Obviously this was alarming and hurtful and nearly spoilt a nice afternoon out.

We arrived at around 4 pm placed our order and sat outside We paid in advance and then we waited The tea room was virtually empty and the lady who took our order was engaged in a lengthy discussion with a couple on the next table about places of interest for them to visit Half an hour later our tea had not arrived the lady was still entrenched in conversation with the couple next to us so I went to the cash desk and the 3 or 4 people in the kitchen said they had not received our order so I asked for a refund Eventually the waitress was summoned who then privy to blame us for not finding out what had happened sooner They bought us out teas and charged us half price no friendly chats nothing the scone was the size of a dinner plate It’s a shame and I don’t understand why they were so disrespectful to us

Usually a really welcoming experience, whether with a group of friends or a family meal out. However there’s been a change of staff, and the lady now front of house on Saturday 23rd is in the wrong job. Absolutely zero customer service skills. Blatant rudeness. Order food, while paying, lady walked off. When drinks were brought to the table, creams were thrown down. All in all, a real dampener on what is usually a fantastic place to meet friends.

Located in such a pretty village. There is a car park across the road with free parking. The tea room very quaint and picturesque. Food and service great. Recommend. Would be lovely in summer as have beautiful front garden with benches.

Planned a walk from Sandringham to Castle Rising & back. Phoned en route to confirm what time they would be closing & we were told 5.30pm. Arrived at 4.30pm after walking over an hour & we were told they weren’t taking any more orders. Really disappointing! Feel like they could have said this when we’d phoned. I could understand if we turned up 15-30mins before closing time but an hour should be ok.

Such a nice friendly quirky place, definitely worth searching out. The ladies that work there are lovely as is their food We had the broccoli and Stilton soup which was very tasty and the selection of cakes looked very yummy

Place looked lovely unfortunately as I had my dog with me I was not allowed inside. The lady working there kindly asked if we were allowed to go upstairs but we were told we would have to sit outside. Not an option in Jan.

Terrible customer service, staff were rude and too busy standing around chatting with eachother loudly to serve people or prepare food and drink. People were waiting ages just for a cup of coffee. You can also see staff members eating their lunch in the kitchen at the same time as preparing food for customers, without wearing gloves or stopping to wash their hands before touching peoples food. Clearly not worrying about basic hygiene or the risk of cross contamination.

Lovely cottage, with a wide selection of food options. They also do afternoon teas. Licensed for alcohol, and nice garden seating area. Family friendly.

A gorgeous quaint little tea room with separate rooms and an upstairs. Lots of delicious home made cakes, lots of choice Inc specials board and breakfast is available. Lots of choice. Great service and very efficient.

The savoury afternoon tea was splendid. The whole menu looked good and I wished we hadn't had lunch! Very relaxed and friendly with a splendid bathroom :0)

Lovely spot, felt like a country cottage but only a stones throw from King’s Lynn. With a large selection of cakes to choose from my mum decided on the Victoria sponge, it was a large portion and it was delicious too - a very enjoyable visit. Service was friendly and quick. Will definitely be back to work our way through the variety of cakes :-)

Popped in after our visit to the Castle.We were amazed at just how busy this tea rooms in a little village was on a very wet and dreary late October afternoon! Although busy , the staff were attentive and polite ,offering a couple of table options . It was explained that once we had made our choices from the menu ,we were to head up to order and pay … this is clearly written on the menus too ! Our lunch came to just over £20 and was fresh and delicious, the bread and filling of the sandwiches were good quality the latte excellent and pot of tea for one was plentiful and despite being a tea bag ( as opposed to leaves) in the pot it was a good strength . All told , we were glad we popped by!

We have visited this lovely tea rooms on many occasions and have been satisfied with the choice, quality and quantity of food served. However, today was rather disappointing. There was no specials board offering quiche, pie etc so we had to opt for sandwiches. The bread was lovely as always, but very little fillings - two rashes of bacon and the thinnest slithers of Brie - not worth anywhere near the £8.95 charged. The tomatoes and peppers on the salad garnish tasted like they were several days past their best. Definitely not the little gem it used to be.

Delicious warm cheese scones with lashings of proper butter does not get better than this. Love the theatre of proper tea leaves in a pot.

First visit here, but will be returning. Had a delicious quiche with Waldorf salad and potato wedges. Very quick service and little wait for the food to appear. Very impressed with the whole venue.

Booked on the day for a luxury afternoon tea for three people. I was delighted that they were able to offer a table reserved for the time we chose, considering it is bank holiday weekend. The setting is very pretty in Castle Rising and the interior doesn’t disappoint either! Service was perfect, and relaxed so you can enjoy the experience and the staff all very friendly. We feasted on freshly made sandwiches and huge homemade scones, plain, fruit and the cheese scone was served with butter and a delicious homemade pickle! Well worth the visit.

Cute house, nice cajes but terrible service . Run by young people who are more interested in their phones than in clients. Terrible service. Avoid.

Went for a coffee. It was really awful tasting. Might be an idea to ditch the coffee machine! It was such a shame as the food coming out looked incredible. And the setting was nice a spot.

Lovely cafe. Staff are great. Really nice to sit in the gardens. Good menu. Stilton and apple sandwich is fabulous and really like their breakfasts

When we arrived the scones were already on the table ! Lack of customer service throughout . Found the staff all lacking in ability to deliver good customer service , training needs looking at ! No one come to take any further drinks orders or ask if everything was okay Room was stuffy and cramped Server brought a hot tea pot to the table and tried to pass this across the table resulting in it spilling everywhere . Think she thought my friend was going to be able to handle it by the boiling hot spout! Should of just walked around the table . Sandwiches were really nice but lacking any sort of cakes other than the scones which was weird when we had booked for afternoon tea . Coffee wasn’t very hot either which was disappointing.

We had been to visit the ruins then walked down to the tearooms, we went in to order and asked for a table, we were told there were none left inside it had been raining and all empty seating outside was very wet I mentioned it was all wet but instead of offering to wipe some down or even give me a cloth to do it they just offered take away...... So we took the hint and will not be going back nor will I recommend to anyone.

Dull Friday during the school term and this place was full. It was a good sign and not wrong Scotch Egg ploughman’s was plentiful, home made scotch egg, pickle, onion, mature cheddar, apple, grapes and salad with option dressing on the side. Mrs had luxury cheese scone which came with a generously filled prawn sandwich. Both meals had home baked bread. Shared the scone it melted in the mouth. Then to tackle desert. Apricot and almond, and raspberry and lemon cake. Shared and both delicious. Washed down with refillable coffee All for £37 - great value.

Wow what a lovely setting We visited here on Bank Holiday Monday having been to The Black Knight Display at the castle It seemed that everyone else at the display decided to visit here as well as there was no food or drink stalls at the display The service was very slow. When our order did eventually arrive it was wrong. The young girl did apologise but it took another 20 minutes to get our order correct and back to our table. The food was of good quality and we were given free drinks for the very long wait. They seemed overwhelmed by the amount of people waiting for a table.

Lovely setting for a snack break. Very pleasant staff and food served quickly. Prices very reasonable. Scone with jam and clotted cream and coffee £6.95, though scone a bit dry. Coconut and peanut butter cake very nice!

The cheese ploughman's was excellent, I think I had my cheese quota for the week 😂. Good quick service and very helpful.

This is the quintessential English tea room and garden. There are delightfully twee rooms inside, upstairs and down and a nice sheltered garden outside with fearless birdlife. Large, tasty scones in 3 varieties and with various serving options. Extensive sandwich range plus cakes and other dishes. Not cheap but good quality. Definitely recommended after visiting the castle.

Bit disappointed. Started with standing there while staff were just looking at us. We were then shown to a cramp table in a corner hearing lots of noise coming from the kitchen. Went up to order and the older woman behind the till was quite rude the way she took the order bad customer service!! Tables menus and mats were very sticky. Food was good tho and location nice with a nice outdoor area. Coffee was very weak.

Not a very helpful obnoxious woman at the counter. Very basic menu sandwiches or baked potatoes. Not impressed today.

Lovely setting for outside refreshments. Stopped for a coffee and bacon sandwich. Quick friendly efficient service very covid friendly. Little on the pricey side though.

My 65th birthday takeaway Afternoon Tea treat in lockdown, what a fabulous array of scrumptious food. Well done and thank you for making it part of my birthday. Christine A xx

This was our second visit. Had lovely scone and coffee in Sept. This time had very tasty jacket potato with generous ramekin of prawns and side salad. My husband's ham sandwiches with side salad also very good.One problem was that my husband did not see the notices for track and trace which I was told when I rang are by the till. Suggest staff should draw customers attention to track and trace as it is obviously easy to miss.

Went there for a coffee and cheese scone. The scone had been warmed in a microwave. It was like rubber. Will not be returning

This is a beautifully decorated tearoom, set out across 3 rooms. There is also a lovely garden if you wish to eat outside.All the staff were very friendly and service was very efficient.The reason I only give 4* is that I feel prices are on the high side for what you get. For example, a tuna sandwich with handful of crisps and salad £6.50 (see pic).

Visited one Saturday afternoon and looked very quaint and inviting. We sat outside and my wife went in to order. I had the baked potato which was very nice complete with salad and two Ramekins one beans the other cheese. My wife had tuna sandwiches complete with salad and crisps. The fruit scones were large and very tasty and the Victoria sandwich was also very nice. The food arrived quickly and the waitress’s smiling and polite. One thing I would suggest during staff training by management is that when food is delivered instead of the staff going back empty handed collect a few of the finished plates etc and this would make the garden far more attractive, clean and tidy.

We stopped in here on a wee tour around Norfolk. Appreciate it’s clearly a tourist area but prices seemed a little high for what you are getting. That said I had a lovely quiche and it was very pleasant out in the garden. It was a shame they were not doing the eat out scheme as there was no other choices for lunch so somewhat spoilt the experience.There are some friendly pigs in the yard behind the tea room which was kinda cool :)

Everything about this little place is welcoming. My friends and I ate here on a rainy Wednesday afternoon. There are so many interesting things to look at and we had our own space tucked away. Everything was clean (and in-line with covid prevention precautions). The tea and food (fresh very tasty sandwiches, salad and crisps and cakes) were delicious. The waitresses were friendly and helpful. The three young ladies there were patient enough to let us enjoy a leisurely catch up, thank you to them.Well worth a visit.

Second visit here and still as good. Service was swift, food was excellent. Everything was as clean as expected and COVID regulation observed. Will definitely go again & soon!

A group of us stopped at Unique Tea Rooms during our recent cycling trip to the coast.The hospitality, service and food was outstanding and the current COVID restrictions in place were managed very professionally and effectively still making our visit very relaxing and enjoyable. The takeaway breakfasts served were very nice and I would not hesitate to recommend this Castle Rising gem.

Can’t across this lovely quaint tea room, with very friendly staff after visiting the Castle. Lovely food

Was visiting the area and came across this tea room . It is beautifully decorated and furnished and has a lovely feel about the place . As we have never been before we were unsure whether to take a seat or we had to be seated . There were staff at the till area , so we waited to catch someone’s eye . As others have commented on other posts , there is a feeling of being ignored as we were hoping that a member of staff would look up and ask if they could help but no one did , so eventually we asked for a table for two . We were advised to take a seat and come up and order . That’s absolutely fine but it would have been good if the staff milling around the till could look up and help customers who are unsure as to what should be done. Ordered tea and fruit scones but they had run out of fruit scones ( this seems to happen regularly as per previous posts ) so we had plain . Scones were very nice and huge , tea was ok but loose leaf would have been more authentic in a tea room . We did enjoy our visit and would come again and hopefully my comments will be treated as constructive.

We arrived at Unique Castle Rising Tea Room for a quick spot of lunch. Our food was quick to arrive and was of a great standard. The staff were very friendly, and the toilets were clean. The only criticism is that the doorways are a little small for tall people like myself, but I know that cannot be helped. Overall, a great experience.

I visited here with my friend to have a nice cup of tea and a scone. We ordered the deluxe hot chocolates (although they had run out of marshmallows we still got charged full price) we also ordered fruit scones but they had run out of those as well (at 2pm on a Saturday) so we went with plain. The scones were nice and came with plenty of clotted cream and jam! Whilst we were there we could here the staff giggling and playing around behind the till and in the kitchen. In particular we heard them commenting on another member of their team who was not at work that day, her name was G____.. apparently she does not cover her shifts and doesn’t pull her weight! Very unprofessional and not appropriate in a hospitality environment.

A refill of our teapot was an extra on the bill, otherwise a great experience. Bigger teapots please, or else a free refill. It's only hot water and a teabag after all.

We often stop by this lovely tearoom, but have recently discovered their Sunday lunches.Beautifully home cooked, hot and plentiful; I defy you to find better value in King's Lynn - no frozen roasties or Yorkshire puds here.All is made from scratch. Everything is wonderfully fresh and the surroundings a quirky delight. Fabulous staff too.

unlike before when I've received excellent helpful friendly service last time a few days ago at 11-30 am told quite matter of a fact 'dont do hot food till noon' - ok 'we will have a sandwich' - same response ' dont do sandwiches till noon'.Wiil go again and hope for better!

Lovely village, the library is in an old red telephone box, really loveley place the Tea Room and garden, when visiting the norfolk coast we stop for breakfast(wonderful and great value) and for afternoon tea(superb cakes etc).I have clicked September below but we vist probably 4 times a year.

I met up with a friend I haven't seen since the summer and we decided to give this tea room a try as it isn't far from where she lives. We found it very easily. My friend had the ham platter and I had the brie and grape sandwich. We certainly weren't going to go hungry as the portions were very generous and it was delicious. We had the pot of tea for two and I was pleasantly surprised - I don't often have tea whilst out because it never tastes right, but this pot was spot on. The staff were friendly - the only thing I would comment is that it might be an idea to have a sign up to say that you have to order at the counter! Will definitely be going back.

Visited with friends for lunch . The soup was delicious, well made and piping hot. Whilst they certainly aim to satisfy any appetite it might be nice to find a fat free suggestion on the menu . Service was ok but the outside loo leaves a bit to be desired .

Great freshly baked homemade scones and cakes, a great place to meet for a chat and a bite to eat. Fantastic seating outside in the good weather, cozy insde too.

On the way to North Norfolk we often call in for a drink and bite. The staff are friendly with service and food very good but on a busy day there can be a queue for the upstairs toilet and once when we arrived ten minutes before closing time we found the front door locked with staff still inside.There is also a nice garden area set out with tables so do go and enjoy this out of the way quiet rural gem.

Popped in for tea and scones after visiting Sandringham. Warm enough to sit in the garden and friendly and efficient service. Nice stopping off point if you are in the area.

Popped in for lunch after visiting the castle, very friendly and helpful service. Sat in the garden with our dog, will visit again if in the area.

My wife and I have been here several times and have always found it to be very good. We've never had a bad experience, so that's why we keep going back. This time I had a Baked Potato with Chilli Con Carne and a little bit of salad and my wife had Tuna sandwiches, both were excellent. We also had a pot of tea..Once again a very good experience.. Will be back again soon.x

We have visited a few times now as we are local. Beautiful setting especially in the summer and my grown up children frequently bring uni friends to give them a typically Norfolk experience. However whilst the setting is good the service is hit a miss. Often tables are not cleared or wiped even when they don’t seem busy and staff could appear more friendly. I think the pricing is fair bit you do expect quality. We had a selection of drinks and cakes the Victoria Sponge my husband thought was excellent my chocolate cake was dry and a little bland.

After visiting Castle Rising Castle we took a walk down to the Tea Room for a light lunch. The menu is very varied with items including cold and hot sandwiches, salads, jacket potatoes, scones, cakes, cupcakes, flapjacks etc. You order at the counter and then can choose to eat inside or outside - we chose outside on this occasion. The coffee arrived very promptly and was tasty but could have been hotter. The sandwiches arrived in good time and had been made to order. We had chosen the cheese and pickle sandwiches which were accompanied by a small amount of salad and some crisps - a little pricey but very tasty. The staff were welcoming, efficient and helpful. It was very pleasant sitting out in the garden. A good experience.

We live locally and decided we needed to get out of the house for a break and so where better to take time out than Castle Rising Tea Rooms?

What a lovely place to visit for afternoon tea or lunch. Great service and food in a lovely surrounding. Only problem was lots of wasps.

Visited the tearoom after a visit to Sandringhan estate, the venue offers indoor seating as well as a large dog friendly garden which was very very pretty. The food was on the expensive side which is a common theme for this type of setting but the portions were generous, the food was good/average. Searching to find the car park was very difficult and is a walk from the tea rooms. Overall the whole experience was a good one, the beauty of the setting is the highlight and once you’ve finally parked it is worth the trip.

We were camping in Sandringham with friends. Afret visiting the castle at Castle Rising we went across the road for some refreshments.

We cycled into castle Rising and popped into the tea rooms for lunch, was served by Georgette who was absolutely lovely... enjoyed our food very much.... lovely setting... well worth a visit.

Stumbled across this tea room whilst we had a walk around the area - I ordered a cake and a latte which I found to be quite expensive and the cake tasted far too sugary. I think there was one other table there, but when I went to find a table a lot of them had remains of food on them.

We visited for drinks following our walk around the castle. First of all we were completely ignored when coming into the cafe, so we sat at the closest available table. 5 minutes or so, still no acknowledgement of our existence. Husband went to the counter to try and place our order, was again ignored for several minutes. Woman behind the counter finally looked up and glared at my husband but still didn't speak to him! He began giving our order and was told in a very harsh tone to wait whilst she wrote the order down.

Disappointed with today’s trip. The weather wasn’t great, so the place was particularly quiet. Which led me to expect good service.

Not the first time this has happened here but it will be the last as sadly we shall not be visiting again. Visited today for morning coffee and cake and went inside to ask if we could take our dog inside. I waited to ask the staff but was ignored and my wife twice tried to get their attention in the kitchen area but was also ignored as the occupants were more interested in carrying on a discussion about a meal - a T bone steak - they had eaten somewhere else. At this point we walked out and went next door to the Black Horse where the service was excellent and attentive.

We are one of your first customers and shared with all our friends. All your staff made everyone feel welcome the ambiance was great.

Visited for lunch .. lovely sandwiches... Crisps not yummy... however had drunk whole lot of tea before it came.

My review is so bad that I am going to contact the venue directly. The last time I visited I thought may have been a one off; it wasn't!! On a pus point Vharlotte who worked there was extremely apologetic and do her best to be helpful.

This picture postcard tearoom should have been an ideal spot for a summer lunch. We decided to eat inside in one of the shabby chic furnished rooms. After having to order at the counter in another part of the building we ended up waiting quite a llong time. This should have meant that the food would be freshly cooked. The sausages in the sausage sandwich were luke warm and over cooked - dry and tough as if pre-baked. The promised home made marmalade was barely visible if present at all. We could not see any. The bread, described as locally baked, was dry and industrial even if it had not travelled far. The sole redeeming feature was the little bit of salad which was fresh and tasty. What should have been a tranquil place was further mared by some staff communicating with each other by raising their voices to a disturbing level.

Called in here after looking around the castle.

I've over this place since I moved here 9 years ago. It's always been brilliant value & quality. Prices have just been put up a ridiculous amount & the cream tea is cheaper if you buy the items individually. Someone obviously can't use a calculator.

My mother and I always visit when the suns shining and sit in the garden with a cream tea. Delicious homemade cakes are available and the roasts are to die for.

This was one of the prettiest tea room I have visited in a long time. Very well presented, nice friendly staff pleasant garden and not to expensive. Cakes very good

This is the first time I’ve set foot in the tea rooms , what a lovely little place ! The ready of our group had the full English breakfast which was freshly cooked and hot, I had eaten so didn’t partake. The only thing I would say is put the toast on a side plate ! No room for it with the hearty breakfast. The decor is great , staff polite and friendly and all ingredients look to be great quality.

Excellent “Big Breakfast” piping hot all served with a smile! Lovely friendly staff and good choice of menu all reasonably priced.

What a lovely friendly and warm place. All age groups and good service. If your in Norfolk please visit

Had steak and kidney pie which was superb and partner had quiche which was also superb. Great atmosphere and staff what more can you say?

Lovely gardens. interior also nice and clean. But if the sun is out, gardens are def the spot to be. Dog friendly

Nice for lunch, very busy inside but as we had the dog we were going to sit outside anyway.

My friend and I decided to meet at Castle Rising Tea Rooms as it is equidistant from each of our homes.

Called in on a dry but cold winters day after visiting the nearby castle. Had our 4-legged friend with us so had to sit outside in the garden. Service wasn't the warmest but was efficient. We had a soy latte, hot chocolate and slice of cake. The latte was too hot but the hot chocolate and cake were lovely. If sitting outside you need to pay upfront, for obvious reasons. Clean outside toilet.

I have been here three times over the course of three years and every time I’m hopeful that things will get better and I’ve just caught them on a ‘bad’ day. Alas, this isn’t true. I’ve vowed to myself that I will never go back here again. Every time I go the food is shocking. The scone I had today - and previously - was rock hard and consisted mostly of glacier cherries. The staff were nice, but inexperienced. The food is reasonably priced but terrible quality. A low-rent cafe masquerading as quaint tea rooms. Don’t do it, you’ll regret it.

What an excellent find! My husband and i popped into Castle Rising on way to Heacham looking for somewhere to have a quick cup of tea.

We’ve had several meals here in the past but today was our first Sunday lunch. We all had beef...excellent! Everything was nice and hot - 2 generously large homemade Yorkshire puddings, proper roast potatoes, leeks, broccoli and carrot and 2 decent sized slices of beef. The gravy was tasty and the horseradish pleasantly hot!

Visited this quaint cafe for a tea and cake. The cakes are amazing and good value. The place itself is a very like an old fashioned style tea room but offes so much more. We saw the roasts being seved and they looked amazing and looking at what peopleleft,nothing, they must alsobe very tasty. The staff are very friendly and helpful and overall an very enjoyable experience that I recommend that if you ae inthe area topay a visit. It may also be worth phoning ahead if you have a large group to ensure they are able to accommodate you all together. Great food great atmosphere great place

Nice place and location. Sadly, quality of food is poor.

Delightful cottage environment with real food, no short cuts, soppy cut bread - our sandwiches were to die for. Won't spoil the surprise of finding the delicious fillings available (we couldn't choose between two so went halves on each) and such good service. In summer the garden is great for outside eating in sunshine in a real country garden.
